The iPhone will retail in all 402 Orange shops, online, Orange HMV concessions, Carphone Warehouse, Phones4U and elsewhere.
The company has developed offers such as a free iPhone for a 24 month contract at £30 a month. The 3G and 3GS handsets will be available to Orange pay-as-you-go, pay monthly and business customers.
A number of Orange stores will celebrate the arrival of the iPhone with early opening at 7 am on 10 November.
The company has seen more than a quarter of a million customers register their interest on our website.
Vodafone is also poised to start selling Apple iPhones.

Finally! I've been on the orange update list for ages now. Thanks for the inside info. Now I just have to convince my girlfriend to get me one!

Would be good if the new providers offer a switch from 02 deal to take over the contract. 3G coverage on 02 is awful.
